Which Pioneer Podcast Weapon to Choose
Tier: ★★★★★
| Weapon | Resonator/Evaluation |
|---|---|
| Autumntrace | - Crit. Rate can be increased with some skills - Increases DMG from Basic Attack and Heavy Attack |
| Augment | - Crit. Rate can be increased with some skills - Attack power increases after Resonance Liberation |
Choose Autumntrace Broadblade
The recommended weapon for the Pioneer Podcast Weapon Chest is Autumntrace. The Crit. Rate increase effect is straightforward and powerful, providing an advantage not found in other 4-Star Broadblade weapons. If you have 5-star attackers like Calcharo, prioritize exchanging for this weapon.
Augment is also Recommended
Like Autumntrace, Augment is recommended because it also increases Crit. Rate. It has an attack power increase effect after Resonance Liberation, making it compatible with Encore.
Tier: ★★★★
| Weapon | Resonator/Evaluation |
|---|---|
| Lumingloss | - Attack power increases on some skills - Basic Attack and Heavy Attack damage increase after using the Resonance Skill Many characters can equip it since it's a sword type weapon |
| Stonard | - Crit. Rate can be enhanced with skills - Skill increases Resonance Liberation DMG |
Lumingloss is Highly Versatile
Lumingloss is an easy-to-use weapon with a 20% increase in Basic Attack and Heavy Attack damage for 10 seconds after using the Resonance Skill. Since it is a Sword, it is also highly rated for being able to equip it to many characters, including the main character, Rover.
Stonard Gauntlet has excellent Crit. Rate increase
Stonard is also recommended because it increases Crit Rate. However, there are currently few attackers compatible with its Resonance Liberation DMG Up, so the priority is low. You can choose it if you primarily use Gauntlet characters.
Tier: ★★★
| Weapon | Resonator/Evaluation |
|---|---|
| Thunderbolt | - Increase attack power with optional skills - Basic Attack and Heavy Attack increases Resonance Skill DMG |
Thunderbolt has Low Priority
Compared to others, there is no increase in Crit Rate, and there are few characters who can equip it, so its priority is low. However, if you are using Chixia as your main attacker, it can be a good choice.

Should you Get Insider Channel?
Get if you play Every Day
Pioneer Podcast is a feature where you can earn rewards by leveling up. You need to complete Pioneer Podcast Quests that are updated daily and weekly to gain Pioneer Podcast EXP required to level up. Therefore, if you plan to play consistently, purchasing the Insider Channel is recommended.
You can also Purchase Levels with Astrites
You can purchase Pioneer Podcast EXP with Astrites as well. If you've purchased the Insider Channel but won't reach valuable items like weapon crates in time, you can solve this with Astrites. However, since it costs 100 Astrite to increase one level, avoid purchasing levels unless it's urgent.
Earn Basic Rewards without Purchasing
Rewards on the basic channel can be earned simply by leveling up. You can get rewards even if you haven't purchased Insider Channel, so you can progress through Radio Missions every day for free.
Rewards Reset Every Season
Pioneer Podcast's level and rewards will be reset every period. The amount of EXP you can earn is limited, so when purchasing Insider Channel, pay attention to the remaining period on the bottom left.
Complete 3 types of Missions
Pioneer Podcast Missions come in three types: Morning Broadcasts (Daily), (Weekly), and Seasonal Specials (Quarterly), each updated according to their respective timeframes. At the end of each day and week, make sure there are no Missions left uncompleted.
